4.7.3 Serial Sensors

4.7.3.1 SDI-12 Sensors

The SDI-12 standard allows cable lengths of up to 200 feet. Campbell Scientific

does not recommend SDI-12 sensor lead lengths greater than 200 feet; however,

longer lead lengths can sometimes be accommodated by increasing the wire

gage and/or powering the sensor with a second 12 vdc power supply placed near

the sensor.
